Joe Neptune

I am a sucker for a nice folk-pop duo, especially an Australian one. So I was pleased to have Joe Neptune add me on myspace last week. He/they are a side project from Melbourne's Custom Kings, whose Where Do They Go? EP and 2008 album At Sea were both catchy and energetic yet impossibly relaxed. This duo is pretty much what you'd expect, a humble dose of easy folk-pop reminiscent of their main band's early work.

Their album No Time To Grow Up is out now, I think, and it includes this track, which could be a Nick Drake song, if Nick Drake was the singer from Custom Kings.
